"The job was to remove an old sinking sidewalk about 25 feet. From start to finish everything went smoothly. I would highly recommend them. The owner came out and went through the project and what it entailed and the equipment that was needed to do the job. I received the estimate by email. The crew came out on time and worked hard through the intense heat until everything was finished, including cleaning up all the broken concrete and raking the area."

"The employee who arrived was extremely nice and professional. My dog loved him as well. The countertop was in a bit of a strange spot in my kitchen but the technician completed the job flawlessly. Counter looks great and they cleaned up the area better than when they arrived. I definitely recommend this company!"

"They were sub-contractors for a purchase through a local chain outlet.  All work was performed by them, though.  Measure was prompt and on-schedule.  Installation was the same.  We had a second date set for backsplash as we had a window ledge that needed precise measurement.  Jeremy had time a day ahead, as did we, so that work was done before scheduling.  Our new sinks were quite a bit deeper and did not match the existing drain configuration.  Chad's dad (Bob) does this kind of work and was able to come over and do the work the same day for a reasonable cost even following up when our new disposal drain flange was not compatible with the Blanco sinks that we purchased with the countertops.
Sadly, Chad and his outfit have been almost too good and are able to concentrate on more custom work;  but hopefully will still be available for us "regular" customers.

"The job only took an hour to complete and went smoothly. Todd made a suggestion on how to arrange the assembly as it was going from 4 holes down to 2 holes. It turned out great. I will definitely use All Trades again."

Countertops and Backsplashes questions, answered by experts

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface countertops can be cut with standard woodworking tools like a circular saw or a jigsaw, but using the correct blade is crucial for the best results.

The recommended blade is a tungsten carbide-tipped blade, often called a solid-surface planer or triple chip grind blade. This type of blade is hard enough to cut through the material effectively. For a jigsaw, a fine-tooth down-cutting blade should be used.

It is important to note that a diamond blade is not necessary. Diamond blades are designed for harder materials like natural stone, concrete, or brick, and Corian is not a natural stone.

Using blades designed for wood is not recommended as they can cause microfractures that weaken the countertop's edges. While a tungsten carbide blade provides a much cleaner cut, the resulting edge will still be rough and must be sanded and smoothed to prevent microfractures from developing over time.

You can revamp your laminate countertops effortlessly with the magic of paint, the DIYer's ally. Many tutorials and DIY kits are available to help you achieve the look of natural stone, including marble. So why not unleash your creativity and transform your countertops into stunning pieces that will leave everyone in awe of your artistic prowess?

Deciding between marble and granite for kitchen countertops depends on your personal priorities, budget, and style. Both materials have similar costs for material and installation.

Marble offers a luxurious aesthetic and timeless beauty, but it is more expensive and requires more maintenance. It is susceptible to staining and etching from acidic substances like coffee, wine, or tomato sauce if spills are not cleaned up quickly.

Granite is highly durable, heat-resistant, and easier to maintain, making it a practical choice for busy kitchens.

Both materials should be sealed to protect against damage, but they can still be vulnerable to stains if spills are left on the surface for too long.

Painting your countertops is a good idea if you want to spruce up your kitchen or bathroom without having to install brand-new counters. It's also cost-effective, and it's a project that most DIYers can take on. Since there are so many paint colors to choose from, you'll be able to easily customize your countertops to fit your home's aesthetic.

While onyx is among the most expensive countertop stones, it’s not always the priciest. It is generally cheaper than Calacatta marble, which is highly sought-after for its rarity and bold veining. However, onyx still commands a premium price due to its unique translucency and delicate nature.
